Kris Sorry we lost you in Barstow. But according to my 79 Husky manuals once you are rolling you don't need to bother with using the clutch. I have never broken a clutch cable but shiftng without a clutch on the older Huskys isn't really much of a problem. Husky steel gears from Sweden are very hard. I don't know much about the newer Huskys however. I live in Escondido also. Nate Harrison is a great getaway ride. Send me a pm if you would like to do it again with some company. Don Don It wasn`t the shifting so much as taking off from a stop. I geared it taller than stock, so taking off I had to get it moving pretty good before dropping it into first. Kris

I would like to add a big thank you to Chris and Rodger for setting up this adventure. Next time I "WILL" make the whole ride, (positive thinking at work). Kris

Jaynen I attached a track, (to my original post) from the East side of Escondido to Palomar and back. Kris

Tried to make up for missing the X-Plane Ride by riding Nate Harrison Grade on Palomar Sunday, here are a few pics! http://www.dualsport-sd.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=3834

Dang! at least we know in the future to carry some mineral oil if your bike has a hydralic clutch. Next time Kris My thoughts exactly! Kris

Hello everyone I drove home shortly after Strega left me at the Ramada. When I got home I unloaded the Husky , filled, bled and cleaned up the clutch master and had it working within the hour. It is seeping fluid from the actuator side where the pin on the lever pushes the piston inside the rubber boot. If I had had some mineral oil I could have continued on the ride, (oh well). Looks like you guys had a good ride. Kris

Does anyone want to split a room for Friday night? I could reserve the room or reimburse someone who already has a reservation.

Just finished hard wiring my 60CSx to my bike, my new rear tire should be here tomorrow. Hopefully my replacement fuel tank shows up in time for the ride. Does anyone want to split a room for Friday night? I could reserve the room or reimburse someone who already has a reservation.

Jeff at Hall`s Cycles is shipping me a replacement today, maybe it will be here in time anyway!

Hello everyone I am going to have to bow out of this ride, I just found a crack in my IMS tank, (walked out to the garage and smelled gas ,saw puddle under bike). I reinstalled the stock tank but it only has a range of about 65 mi. I don`t think i will receive a replacement soon enough for the ride. Have a good ride!

Clicked the wrong button on my last post, sorry. I have a Garmin GPSMAP 60CSX.

I am not sure yet but I may be out there during that time frame. I have 28th-30th off. Keep us updated.

My Desert Rose in Ocotillo Wells burned down last night!

Has there been any decision on the date yet?

The weekend of Jan 10th is a full moon!
